Today, I was chatting online with a guy I really like, when he used the word "irregardless." I couldn't help but mention how little sense it makes, since it's a combination of two words meaning roughly the same thing. He replied, "lol what? your stupid." Jesus Christ. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was chatting to a co-worker, upon whom I have a serious crush. It was going really well, until he said "irregardless", as if it's actually a proper word. This grammatical abomination really ticks me off, and I actually had to fight back the urge to beat some damn sense into him. FML
Today, I was on a chat site and a couple of cute guys asked for my "ASL". I had no idea what that meant so I asked one of my cousins. He said it meant "asshole" and that they were calling me an asshole. So I cursed at everyone who was actually asking for my "age, sex and location." FML
Today, I yet again heard a friend say "YOLO" as if it's a word. It was so annoying that I had to restrain myself from punching him in the face and offering him the chance to suck on one of my turds, since apparently "YOLO." FML
Today, I was mentioning to a coworker how there was a huge lull today in business. A young coworker then turned to me and sead in a snooty tone, "I think you mean a 'lol', it's pronounced L-O-L." FML
Today, I was talking to a guy when he pointed behind me and said, “Hey, what’s that?” I looked behind me and he burst out laughing, saying he “can’t believe I’m so stupid that I still fall for that old trick.” We were having a conversation, not a physical fight. FML
Today, while talking to my boyfriend, he got upset and accused me of making up words to make him feel stupid. All because I used the word "vapid." FML
Today, I was talking to an attractive guy, but I was so nervous that I got tongue-tied and then blurted out, "Stupid autocorrect." FML
Today, I was talking online to this guy, and everything was great. He then sent a voice message and his accent was a deal breaker. FML
Today, I texted someone and typed, "lol". My boyfriend asked me why I put "lol". I told him because I thought it was funny. He looked at me weird and said, "But you didn't laugh." Now he thinks I'm weird because I didn't actually laugh out loud. FML
Today, at work I put myself squarely in the lame / old people category when I foolishly asked out loud what FML meant. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Some people just don't want to admit they're wrong.

*Clears Throat* People, OP never said that irregardless wasn't a word, just that it was a strange one. She made a poke at the word, not the person using it at he time. The fact that the other person chose to respond like that is what makes this an FML...

If you're going to correct someone, be sure you know the difference between "your" and "you're."

The part that said your stupid, was OP continuing the quote from the person she was chatting with. He told her... Your stupid..

Maybe he meant irregardless as meaning "without lack of regard". :P

You don't get it, do you? People don't like grammar nazis. On top of that this is supposed to be a guy you like and you are already nagging him about his grammar. Here's a thought ignore it. You deserved to be called stupid.

Yeah I agree. When people just insist on correcting grammar for no good reason like that they're just being smart asses and pissing everyone else off. This wasn't preparing for a dam public speech in front of a hundred people, this was just a dam online chat. Someone who's going to make such a big deal out of that has a massive tree up their ass and that guy definitely isn't going to like her back.

Don't think you should be correcting people when you use the wrong "your"

She was quoting him. He's the one who used "your" instead of "you're." Not her.

wow op i bet you're a barrel of laughs. despite what people think language is fluid and ever changing and people like to play around with it. whether you were right or not is irelevent becuase it was a bitchy thing to do for no good reason.
